Chapter 4: Strange Events in Xingluo Town



The next day.

Starfall Town.

"Wow, Miss, Master, this Xingluo Town is so lively. Compared with this place, Yunling Town is just like a small village with no one in it!"

Walking on the busy streets with a great flow of people, looking at the various shops, restaurants, inns and brothels lined up around her, Liusu was very excited. She held Qiu Zhihe's hand and chattered.

"That man actually brought two big dogs, both of which are second-grade spiritual beasts. I wonder what the quality of their meat is like?"

"What are those people over there painting on their faces? Could it be that they have painted a magic circle on their faces?"

"Hey, hey, hey, miss, look, those female cultivators over there are only wearing animal skins. Their legs are not even as long as mine, yet they have the nerve to show them off. Ha!"

Qin Gengyun looked in the direction of Liusu's finger and saw that the female cultivators were wearing clothes made of cloud-patterned leopard skin. The skin only covered their chests and thighs, revealing large areas of wheat-colored skin.

You can even see six abdominal muscles on the abdomen, and the legs are well-proportioned and strong, full of strength and beauty.

"Those are the people from the Northern Wilderness Cloud Pattern Mountain. They are all polyandrous, and the women are very enthusiastic about men. Do you like them, my husband?"

Hearing Qiu Zhihe's cold voice, Qin Gengyun quickly retracted his gaze and said with an embarrassed smile:

"My lady, you are joking. I was just curious about their attire, so I took a closer look."

"Hey, looking at it one more time could cost someone's life, right Miss?"

Liusu laughed out loud beside him. Along the way, whenever Qin Gengyun looked at the beautiful female monk a few more times, Qiu Zhihe's face would turn cold.

Liusu found it so interesting. The saint was so cute when she was jealous!

Qiu Zhihe turned around and glared at Liusu. Liusu quickly covered her mouth, her eyes rolling around, and it seemed that she was still laughing.

"The Chang family is just ahead!"

Qin Gengyun pointed to the front, where a majestic and magnificent immortal palace stood. It was located in the most prosperous area in the center of Xingluo Town and covered a vast area, which showed the influence of the Chang family in Xingluo Town.

"Sir, Miss, shall we go in directly?"

Liusu asked.

Qin Gengyun was worried about Mo Xiaolan these days and tried his best to travel. He completed the journey that would take five days in just three days.

At this moment, the Chang family was right in front of him, and Mo Xiaolan was in the basement of the Chang family. He really wanted to rush in and find someone.

"There are two foundation building pieces inside."

Qiu Zhihe said.

Qin Gengyun was no longer surprised by his wife's various miraculous behaviors. He believed whatever she said. Hearing this, he said:

"Madam, let me go in and ask first."

Although he and his wife had already established their foundation, he still didn't want his wife to take risks, so he went in first to see the situation.

Qiu Zhihe did not comment. The three of them walked to the front of Chang's house, but saw dozens of men kneeling in front of the vermilion gate, crying and begging:

"Master, my wife has been missing for more than a month. Please send more people to search for her!"

"Master, my two daughters are missing. This cruel thief wants to kill me!"

"My wife and daughter are missing. Master of the family, you have to make the decision for me!"

These people knelt on the ground and begged loudly, it was extremely miserable, and it was really heartbreaking to hear.

"What's going on?" Liusu scratched her head, not understanding.

But the door of Chang Mansion opened, and a middle-aged man with a goatee walked out, with his hands behind his back, a look of arrogance and impatience, and shouted:

"The owner of the house has already sent people to speed up the search. You should go home and wait. Don't come here to make any more noise!"

These male cultivators dared not cry or wail anymore, and kowtowed repeatedly, saying loudly: "Thank you, Master!"

The man with goatee nodded indifferently, then turned and walked into the gate. Qin Gengyun frowned and was about to go straight into the Chang family, but was stopped by Qiu Zhihe.

"Madam?"

Qin Gengyun was puzzled, but he saw Qiu Zhihe looking towards Chang Mansion with her eyebrows slightly frowned, as if she had sensed something.

At this time, the male cultivators gathered in front of Chang's house gradually dispersed. Liusu walked up and grabbed one at random, and asked with a grin:

"My handsome fellow Taoist, can I ask you something?"

This male cultivator was quite young, with an elegant and handsome temperament. When such a beautiful woman suddenly appeared before him, he subconsciously took a half step back and said in surprise:

"I don't deserve it. I wonder what you want to ask?"

Liusu was indeed pointing at the best-looking of these male cultivators and said with a grin:

"We are from out of town. We just saw you kneeling and begging at the door of Chang's house, but that goatee guy just dismissed you. What's going on?"

The handsome male cultivator's face changed, and he quickly said, "Fellow Daoist, please do not be rude. The one just now was Steward Lu, the chief steward of the Chang family, and one of the most respected people among the cultivators of Xingluo Town!"

Liusu screamed and wrinkled her little face. "They chased you away like flies, and you are still showing them respect?"

At this time, Qin Gengyun stepped forward, bowed and said, "My fellow Taoist, my surname is Qin, and this is my wife's sister. I'm sorry for the offense. What did you ask for just now? Can you tell me?"

Seeing his courtesy, the handsome male cultivator also bowed and said, "Fellow Daoist, my name is Luo Wenzhi, and my family has lived in Xingluo Town for generations. My wife disappeared two months ago, and we couldn't find her anywhere. So I came to Chang Mansion to ask the master of the family to send someone to help us search."

"The situation is similar for the other Taoist friends who were with me. Some of them have lost their wives, and some of them have lost their daughters."

Luo Wenzhi said with a worried look on his face: "My wife is pregnant. According to the date, she should have given birth a few days ago. I, I am really worried about her!"

As he spoke, he sighed and his eyes became red.

"You want to harm a pregnant woman? What a beast!"

Liusu said angrily, and Luo Wenzhi couldn't help crying when he heard it:

"My wife and I love each other, and we wanted to live a peaceful life as a family of three, but who would have thought that we would encounter such a disaster? If anything happens to my wife and the baby in her belly, I, I don't want to live anymore!"

Liusu curled her lips and thought to herself that this man is affectionate indeed, but he cries like a woman at every turn, which is a bit lame!

"Brother Luo loves your wife so deeply, he will definitely be able to find her and bring her back!"

Qin Gengyun could understand Luo Wenzhi's feelings. If Qiu Zhihe also suddenly disappeared, he would probably not be much better off.

"Thank you, Brother Qin. I'll take my leave now!"

Luo Wenzhi left crying. Qin Gengyun turned around to look at Qiu Zhihe, but saw that she had not said a word since then. He quickly asked:

"Ma'am, what's wrong with you?"

Qiu Zhihe looked towards the sky at the deepest part of the southwest corner of Chang Mansion and said coldly:

"There is a dark aura floating over there. Someone is practicing evil skills."

Qin Gengyun was stunned. "Isn't this Chang family a righteous cultivator affiliated with the Zhenyang Sect? How could they practice evil skills?"

Liusu snorted: "Who said that righteous monks don't practice magic? Back then..."

Qiu Zhihe interrupted Liusu and said calmly:

"It's the Record of Celestial Beasts."

"What?!" Liusu covered her mouth and exclaimed:

"The Record of Heavenly Beasts? This is a technique that can eat people! Who is so bold?!"
